A straightforward book to help those searching for personal faith in God.
Traces the development of atheistic and agnostic thinking from the 'Golden Age' of Greek philosophy to the present day. Pinpoints the influence of thinkers such as Immanuel Kant, Friedrich Nietzsche, Martin Heidegger, Albert Camus, Jean-Paul Sartre and Bertrand Russell, and shows how their teaching has shaped recent atheistic and agnostic ideas. Traces the rise of Darwinian evolutionism and uncovers the weaknesses in claims made by its modern supporters such as Richard Dawkins and Peter Atkins. Exposes the errors of secular humanism, materialism, relativism, determinism and existentialism. Highlights the fundamental flaws in nine world religions and fourteen major cults. Shows why science and true religion are not opposed to each other. Examines the critical issue of how an all-powerful God of love can allow evil and suffering in the world.
The focus of this book is on teaching pupils to direct their own learning. It deals with formative assessment, that is, assessment designed to inform and enhance pupils' learning. It questions how pupils learn, why they have the curriculum they have, and how they are helped or hindered by their provision. This is a profound and extensive challenge, consistent with an agenda of inclusive education. It indicates that pupils' learning about learning provides a model for professionals' and schools' development.
The theory of evolution has been called 'the most powerful and the most comprehensive idea that has ever arisen on earth'. It has been so passionately argued and so heavily promoted in the mass media that millions of people with no scientific expertise assume it must be true. Evolutionism says that life on earth began by chance in some kind of chemical 'soup', and claims that Homo sapiens is the latest product of a vast sequence of species that led from the first living cell through invertebrates, fish, amphibians, reptiles, birds, furry quadrupeds and ape like mammals. What is the evidence for this fascinating scenario? Can we prove that life began in this way? What are the odds against such a thing happening? Has archaeology found clear links between all species without limitation? Can we really show that all life forms owe their distinct existence to random, unplanned, accidental genetic changes? Or is there another explanation...?
An outstanding, and sobering, volume from John Blanchard. Many would air-brush hell out of all thought today - or at least play down its horror and duration. Dr J.I. Packer says in the Foreword that he "gratefully commends [the book] and hopes it will be widely read." The need is no less now, and Dr Blanchard's approach of helping confused Christians as well as targeting complacent unbelievers is as fresh as ever. This new edition has been revised and now includes the ESV as the main source of Scripture quotations. Nobody can think seriously about hell and remain emotionally and psychologically unaffected. The idea that after a few years of life on earth an untold number of human beings, man...
Health, finance, family, the future - life is full of questions. There are deeper questions, too. Who am I? Why am I here? Where am I going? Does life have any purpose? But the ultimate questions are about God. Does he exist? What is he like? Can I know him and experience his power in my life? And if so, how? This booklet tackles these vital questions head-on - and answers them simply, clearly and directly. Read it carefully. It could change your life - for ever.
The finest book I have ever read explaining who Jesus really is. Carefully reasoned, rooted in the Bible, and written in a popular, easy-to-read style, this book will prove thrilling for the Christian and very convincing to the sceptic or unbeliever. Brian Edwards, preacher and author.
In 1658 the famous English preacher Richard Baxter wrote a book entitled A Call to the Unconverted, regarded by many as the greatest book on Christian conversion that has ever been written. It was translated into several languages and was thought to have been the means of bringing thousands of people to a living faith in Christ. Based on Baxters work, Invitation to Live has the same serious, earnest and urgent message. It pleads with the reader to be ruthlessly honest in examining his spiritual condition, tells him of Gods amazing love, and urges him to accept Gods invitation to receive the forgiveness of sins and eternal life. It also leaves him in no doubt about the alternative.
